But I need the surface brightness of the Sun in my living room! It adds so much depth to the characters and stories!
Comment on Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs
TBi@lemmy.world 11 hours agoAlso I think the improvements in HDR and brightness recently are more substantial than the update to 8K. At normal viewing TV distance you’d be hard pressed to see the individual pixels, even on a 1080p screen.
Even for PCs there isn’t much reason to go about 2k screens (1440p).

This is why I often refer to 4K as UHD: The WCG and HDR being available to consumers is far more impactful than end users having a few more pixels.
(Also because I’m a snarky pedant, and consumer 4K UHD is only 3840 wide, while DCI4K is actually 4096)
